Connected Learning Through Game Playing

Game-related activity can be the container for all curricular content in most units of study.  This article focuses on a New York city middle school called Quest because it is a school for digital kids. It is founded on  concepts from the  Institute of Play, either hands-on or digital. http://www.instituteofplay.org/ .
Students using games do exhibit innovative ideas, collaboration, critical thinking, and other 21st Century skill important in today's classes.
